For Immediate Release

Vietnam Infrastructure Limited

(the "Company")

Distribution to Holders of Private Equity Shares

The Board of Directors of the Company is pleased to announce an aggregate distribution to Private Equity Shareholders (the "Shareholders") of US$65 million (the "Distribution") representing US$0.1856 (rounded up to 4 decimal places) for each Private Equity Share currently in issue (the "Applicable Distribution Amount"). The Company has published a distribution circular that will be sent to Shareholders today which sets out the terms and conditions of the Distribution in more detail. The Record Date for the Distribution is Friday 24 February.

As explained in the Admission Document, the Company's current investing policy in relation to the Private Equity Portfolio is to seek to realise its Private Equity Portfolio investments at the best available value and in a reasonable timeframe with a target exit date of no later than 30 June 2017. The proceeds from the sale of investments in the Private Equity Portfolio and surplus net cash-flows will be distributed to the shareholders of the Private Equity Shares on a periodic basis.

Following the divestment of the major Private Equity Portfolio investments, the Board has resolved to declare a second distribution to Shareholders.

Shareholders entitled to receive the Distribution may elect to receive their Applicable Distribution Amount in "Cash Only" OR, if they are Eligible Shareholders, may elect to have the Company apply their Applicable Distribution Amount in subscribing for "VVF Shares Only" in the Company's name, and then transfer such VVF Shares to the relevant Eligible Shareholder (the "Election"). The subscription for such number of VVF shares including fractions (at the then current net asset value of a VVF Share) will equal to the relevant Applicable Distribution Amount (rounded down to three decimal places).

Please note that if a Shareholder does not make a valid Election for "Cash Only" they will receive VVF Shares. Please also note that any Elections made for "VVF Shares Only" that are received from Shareholders who are not Eligible Shareholders will be rejected and the Applicable Distribution Amount will be settled in cash.

The timetable for the Distribution is as follows:

It is expected that Eligible Shareholders who submit valid Election Forms and Transfer Forms and who have elected to receive "VVF Shares Only" and who have provided all required anti-money laundering and know your customer compliance documents will receive confirmation in writing from EdR Asset Management (as administration agent for VVF) that their VVF Shares are registered in their name by the Settlement Date but no certificates representing the VVF Shares will be issued. 

The distribution circular that will be sent to Shareholders today will contain the formal terms and conditions of the Distribution, together with details of how holders of Private Equity Shares can elect to receive their Applicable Distribution Amount in "Cash Only" or "VVF Shares Only". A copy of the distribution circular will also be available on the Company's website http://vni-fund.com.

Whether Shareholders elect to receive their Applicable Distribution Amount in "Cash Only" OR elect to receive "VVF Shares Only" will depend on each Shareholder's circumstances and is a decision which each Shareholder must make for itself in light of its individual financial and tax circumstances and personal investment objectives.

The above times and/or dates may be subject to change and, in the event of such change, the revised times and/or dates will be notified to the Shareholders by an announcement through a Regulatory Information Service of the London Stock Exchange.

Defined terms used in this announcement have the same meaning as ascribed to them in the distribution circular to Shareholders dated 31 January 2017.
